SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW is a thriller that follows our hero, Bobby Larsen, who retreats to the family cottage by a lake in Upstate New York to deal with the death of his wife. His wife actually comes back to haunt him in the land of the living. It is a suspense-thriller coupled with a love story that transcends time, and it's also a sort of buddy movie. At its heart, it deals with the subject of "grief," and forces us all to look at our own experience with this life and things beyond.
